That one sucked too, but all in all not too bad. If you want, you can count my wisdom teeth as well which I was out for.


I like green because I think it's pretty. :P

Wow. You sure had a plethora of surgeries. owo

I've never had any... *feels really thankful for that* Besides, if I did have surgeries I'd be that really weird patient that would want to see myself in surgery. >w>;

Q: What's everyone's favourite colour?

I thought blue was peace and calmness? owo

I don't know if your question was directed at fellow staff or all users, but my favourite colour is green. :D <3

Well.... Ashy is an Aussie so her thoughts might be different from ours on the color Blue vs Purple for us

I think we all know ulti's favorite color >w>;;

Lucid doesn't have a favorite, because she thinks all the others would feel bad if she picked just one. :x

I've had two surgeries, both on my toenails. The first time, I had to get ingrown toenails removed on both my big toes. they cut off a sliver of the toenail and put stuff on the nailbed to kill the nail in that section so it wouldn't grow back. One toe recovered just fine, the other nailbed was damaged somehow and the toenail fell off a few years later. It grew back in yellow, flaky layers so I had a second surgery to have that nail completely and permanently removed. So I only have 9 toenails. :D
Getting needles stuck in your toes really hurts though. When the doctor pulled out the needle during my second surgery, I almost cried and ran away because it was so painful the first time around. Getting the nail off was important to me though, so I was a big girl and stuck it out! *^*

[Tiva]

ulti is not blue right now....

[Alpha]

Holy....they aren't blue, that's so strange....

Lucid: I know the feeling.....had ingrown toenails removed three times and need to get another removed....I hate that needle that they use...*hisses*

Hmm....have to say my favorite color is blue.

You've got that backwards, actually. :) Purple is the color of royalty because the dye was so coveted. Specifically, it was hard to make and therefore rare and expensive.


My favorite color is green. :)

...Though I tend to use blue a lot more than in choosing the colors of things.

[Alpha]

That's right....my bad. I knew those two were connected, just couldn't remember the order. Danke Toho!

[Ultima]

Yeah, this is one of my creepy Halloween avatars, so it's not blue XDD I swear, come November I will be blue-r than Toho 0n0

Despite the fact that you aren't even decked out in your favourite colour, eh? :P

But what if all the colours feel really sad just because you wouldn't pick a favourite when they really wanted you to? >w>

*goes to look up what ingrown toenails look like* D: That looks really painful to have. D: How do doctors even fix ingrown toenails with needles? owo

Mine's the other way around! My favorite color is blue but I tend to pick green for things.

Really? D:

Yikes! That really sucks. D:

[Coda]

>.>; I dig my own out. *sweatdrop*

[Alpha]

They use the needle to inject a local anesthetic and then, depending on the doctor, they either use a specialized pair of "scissors" to cut it out or some other instrument......

[Arikana]

The needle part sounds fairy enjoyable, but the rest does sound quite painful. D:

How do you do it on your own, Coda? owo
And where do you get your anaesthesia from? >w>
